Naughty With Nature Thursday
Broadway Theatre
It’s not a show for the faint of heart. Puppetry of the Penis has been described as a demented and hilarious show by many and there must be something to it because its toured the world for 17 years. It originated in Australia at the International Comedy Festival and caught fire. Frankly speaking, this show’s a comedy show of genital origami. These performers twist their junk into shapes like the flying squirrel and the hamburger. There’s plenty of laughs to be had and yes, there’s also plenty of nudity. See what has kept crowds coming back. Tickets are $47.
